Glanzacoley Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Hi guys I work as an apprentice for Carmarthenshire council on my way to a job in pontyberem we took a short cut through a country lane where I seen a very neglected glanza so I knocked the farm door & the guy was in his 70's his wife phoned me the following day & I offered them £300 she declined & said £200 would be enough, I collected the car 10 days later on a recover truck as it had 2 flat tyres took it home & gave it a good clean. Still can't believe what I found for £200 still had the jdm flare in it. Original wind deflectors & mats & CD player a completely unmolested glanza 😃 can't wait to start working on her now. by the way the car fired up first time!! 😃 few of you are probably thinking must be a load of s**t for £200 but it's mint just needed a good wash Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eynonz Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Wey Hey! Another Welsh comrade. Sounds like a massive bargain too me, I've seen a couple of pensioners driving unmolested Glanza's around, probably unaware of the weapon they sit on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Cheers guys for the positive feedback. Still getting to grips with using this forum 😄 I realised when I picked it up that it was a glanza s but tbh it really didn't bother me (v would have been a bonus) but heyy still a glanza and for £200 it's an absoloute bargain.

Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 This is what the car was like when I first seen it. My grandfather went with me & said "what do you want with an old piece of junk like that" on collection day I more or less stuck the money down her throat & grabbed the key & receipt & v5.

Matt1878 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Welcome to UKSO.. Shame it's not a V though.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Yes it is a shame but it really doesn't bother me. The way I see it is you see v's everywhere I have never seen a glanza s they are more rare than the v. I've got the 💷💷💷 to go 5e with gt30 anyway etc etc but I'm not bothered about that atm just want to get it looking nice 😜 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Should tidy it up and sell it on man, Glanza S are quite rare and would be nice to see one kept origional Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 So it could be worth more in it's orginal state than playing around with it? How much do you reckon it would be worth in good condition then? Definitely making a profit right? 🔰🔰🔰🔰 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Well after a tidy up, few mods like springs and alloys, maybe £1.2k or there about ??After you get all the dents out and that obviously Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Wow that much 😮💰💰 it only has one slight dent in rear quarter as you can see in the pics & a small patch of rust apart from that she's mint. I'm getting a new windscreen for it £74 fitted at my house. I'm looking for an aftermarket exhaust now guys of any of you could point me in the right direction of one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Or keep it and enjoy it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanzacoley Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Yeah I think that's what I'm going to do for the time being I've had a civic ek which I loved. Gutted I sold it now for pennies. Seems there are a lot more tuning parts out there for civic's that glanza's too, anyone know for any backboxes for sale?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
